Donet Tom 00bcfcd47a selftests: mm: hugepage-vmemmap fails on 64K page size systems
The kernel sefltest mm/hugepage-vmemmap fails on architectures which has
different page size other than 4K.  In hugepage-vmemmap page size used is
4k so the pfn calculation will go wrong on systems which has different
page size .The length of MAP_HUGETLB memory must be hugepage aligned but
in hugepage-vmemmap map length is 2M so this will not get aligned if the
system has differnet hugepage size.

Added  psize() to get the page size and default_huge_page_size() to
get the default hugepage size at run time, hugepage-vmemmap test pass
on powerpc with 64K page size and x86 with 4K page size.

Result on powerpc without patch (page size 64K)
*# ./hugepage-vmemmap
Returned address is 0x7effff000000 whose pfn is 0
Head page flags (100000000) is invalid
check_page_flags: Invalid argument
*#

Result on powerpc with patch (page size 64K)
*# ./hugepage-vmemmap
Returned address is 0x7effff000000 whose pfn is 600
*#

Result on x86 with patch (page size 4K)
*# ./hugepage-vmemmap
Returned address is 0x7fc7c2c00000 whose pfn is 1dac00
*#

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
